New Killer Idea: The Follower
I had an Idea for a killer and was going to do an entire chapter, but I can't think of a survivor, so...
The Killer
Killer Name - The Follower
Gender - Male
Height - Average
Movement Speed - 4.6 m/s
Terror Radius - 32 meters
Killer Power - Dark Magic
Power Description
The Follower harnesses dark magic to curse those around him. This dark magic allows him set up traps that will help him later in the game.
Cursed Pallet
This ability has 5 charges. The Follower can walk up to a pallet that has not been dropped to curse it, spending one of the charges. Survivors that drop the pallet or vault it after having it been dropped will have -10% running speed for 20 seconds. During this time, scratch marks left by a cursed survivor will stay 2 seconds longer than usual.
Dark Alarm
This ability has 3 charges. The Follower can place the dark alarm anywhere on the ground. Survivors that walk within 10 meters of it will have killer's instinct applied to them. The survivors can also interact with the alarm and spend 5 seconds destroying it. Destroying the alarm will give the Follower a loud noise notification.
Killer Biography
Augustus Deusdedit was born in 254 in the Roman Empire. His childhood was spent mostly with his parents, who he had loved dearly. He lived a normal childhood and became a Roman soldier at age 16. He felt that the Roman military was a place where he could honor his family and protect his country, which were goals instilled into him by his parents long ago. One day, his commander noticed his naivety and skill, so he asked to talk to him in private. He told Augustus that the gods he believed weren't real. He gave him an offer to join a cult. They focused on blood worship and saw Augustus as a prime target.
While in the cult, Augustus was taught how to harness dark magic and use it to harm others. He excelled through the ranks and within 4 years, he had become second-in-command within the cult, only second to who they called "The Servant", a hooded man who never told anyone his identity. Augustus commanded the cult under the influence of their god, the darkness. He sacrificed hundreds of people and felt like the cult was finally a place that was right for him, until one day.
He showed up in the middle of the night at the secret worshipping place of the cult. Within an hour of worship, soldiers starting breaking into the building, killing everybody in their way. The soldiers started heading for the Servant's quarters, and Augustus knew he had to do something. He grabbed a long sword and started attacking the soldiers. They were too strong for him, though, and they cornered him into the Servant's quarters. He fought bravely until eventually he was stabbed in the chest by one of the soldiers. As he was bleeding out, he slowly crawled over to the Servant, who beckoned him to come closer.
The Servant told Augustus to use his magic. Augustus harnessed all his power and released a shockwave blowing away everybody in the area, killing all of them, including the Servant. Augustus frantically crawled over to his body, where he found him completely dead, as he had been impaled by a sword laying in the corner of the room. Augustus slowly pulled back the hood the Servant had on his head to reveal his identity. It was his father. He fell back in astonishment, and he screamed in agony. He cried himself to sleep in a pile of bodies and his own blood.
Just then, he felt something. A gray fog flushed over him, and he woke up in a forest. That was when he met the god he called the Darkness for the first time. He was told of its true identity, The Entity. He once again made his vows to the Entity, and he became the new servant.
